The AMD Fanatic/Educator July-August 2014 Program

[GeForce]

It's AMD. That's the AMD way. It's called "Fanatic" program for a reason. Only fanatics will go the extra mile to promote AMD



Got transratione?

I prefer AMD Robot cosplay

Means if not fussy its not bad. Anyways have to give kudos to AMD for doubling their efforts! Wish Asus or the rest would step their game up

Even i as an Nvidia fan (sort of) cant deny their price-perf ratio along their whole line. Esp 290.

The card to buy; one level lower than flagship

Same just like R7950 vs GTX670. It's $400 vs $550++

in this case your 499/528 R290 vs 700-800 GTX 780. Huge difference

If I was building a ballin small ITX rig, I'd be willing to pay a premium for ref 780 though. NV is the only option for high performance with blower design

Frankly why don't you try head down to PCT or VideoPro this sunday and see whether the guys know their stuffs
That's how they are doing their promotion ... the cosplay is another thing the main point is guiding people with their questions.

Erm you think Intel makes money by letting people "know" their stuff?
You are doing it wrong.

You seem to have alot of comments on this program lol why dont you join them?

No I just think it is a stupid idea, so why would I join?

Your objections are duly noted but as again they are your opinion. I would suggest instead of deriding the system that you present better alternatives.

I for one think its a good promotional tour that AMD is using as long as the educators are forthcoming and proactive. Although the cosplay idea wasnt the best development we'll see how AMD responds to our feedback here in this thread

 

[sglords]

AMD shld promote at upcoming IT show instead
Even those no idea at least know there's such a brand

TBH this kind of job sucks in the first place, then now have to wear No.4 and boots and stand in cramped SLS with not even a booth to stand in to get paid in products with rubbish resale value. I really pity them.

 

[ArcticCheetah]

People buy computers only hwzoners buy processor.
To make sure sales are highe make sure your processor is in the computers they buy.
